Best places: Cafes in Essendon, Australia

👍👍 Love the service and ambiance at the café. The house roasted beans make a really nice cup of coffee, either white or black. The menu hosts both classic and clever takes on brunch food, everything I've had has been flavourful and delicious. Have taken my dad and partner here, and I have intentions to...

Trendy, bare-bones, standing-room-only spot for artisanal coffee ground on-site, and small treats.

👍👍 Vegan jaffles to die for! I had the spicy vegan pulled beef jaffle, and the vegan meat was so spot on, the texture was just like pulled beef. I accompanied this with a batch brew which was freshly brewed and also great. Service was lovely. Seating was available inside of outside undercover the alley...

👍👍 The best focaccia in Melbourne, hands down. I recommend the gourmet ones, especially Mortadella&Pistachio... or Octopus... or Salsiccia&friarielli... oh my God! To many good ones!!! They are all amazing. Also Jessica's desserts are to die for 🤤 I love the cosy atmosphere, and the super friendly...

👍👍 They have the best falafel in Melbourne. The food was so delicious (try Colibaba, you won’t be disappointed). Everything was so clean and fresh. Great customer service and the staffs are very friendly. Highly recommended 👌🏻

👍👍 I updated this review to 5 star! Delicious range of unique flavours ice cream. I love the Vegan and GF options Cendol, Ketanhitam and Pandan Rice Pudding... by the tub! Great prices. Can get busy so be prepared to wait but that just means the ice cream is amazing!

Unique, non-profit centre offering an organic grocery & cafe, nursery & environmental education.

Specialty coffee & baked goods in a cool, industrial space with high ceilings & large windows.

Busy, cosy French creperie with a warm vibe, offering sweet and savoury options, cider and wine.

A menu of thoughtfully sourced, classic pizzas & pastas in a vibrant, relaxed Italian restaurant.

👍👍 What an absolute gem!! Our kids spent two hours and loved it. They wanted to stay longer! Great deal during these school holidays (hot dog/fries/drink incl in the $20 for 2 hours). Don't worry too much about the bad reviews. I could not fault anything from the staff upstairs to the team downstairs....

Coffee & creative cakes in a cozy hideaway with illustrations on the walls & a vintage vibe.

👍 This is a nice place to watch the sunset. You should come here about 30 minutes to sunset. The dock is reachable using the free tram. Get off at the dockland stop in front of the Marvel stadium.

👍👍 Tried it on uber eats this week and was very good so had to go there and give it a try in person. Great food, friendly service and a unique layout complete with a chook pen! The generous servings of 🥓 will get me every time.

All-day Italian dining, plus booze & gelato cakes, in a laid-back fixture also selling deli items.

😐 Burgers, ribs and wings restaurant in highpoint shopping center. Not my favourite place though. The food was just ok, so so. Not bad but not good either. We ordered 3 full racks of pork ribs and beef ribs. Hot bbq sauce is better than bbq sauce. Its not that hot though, just a bit of the heat. The r...

😠 Food took way too long to arrive! That won't be a problem if the food was worth the wait but it turns out not. The dishes were in disposable foil trays unlike the photos you see online. They must have changed this recently. Food was very average, I can even cook this myself at home with better prese...

👍👍 Outstanding bakery to satisfy any sweet or savoury cravings! This is a very popular place and often has a long line to enter but it’s very much worth the wait. They’ve got a range of pastries, cakes, croissants, pies, sausage rolls! Hard to pick just a few but we ordered the cream cheese, custard...

👍👍 The award for absolute best vegan restaurant in Melbourne goes to Brother Bon 🏆! Food is amazing! Full of flavour. They have an extensive menu (So much to choose from) and a great friendly service

👍👍 The hot chocolate and the chai latte were DELICIOUS!!! Nice to order little baklavas on the side!!! Definitely a place that I would highly suggest!!!
